Broker's Comments

The moment you first clap eyes on her you'll notice that this boat was built in another age where safety, security and handling came before cost cutting production runs. Everything about this boat exudes strength and quality. This boat is tugging at her mooring lines to leave on an oceanic cruise. She is spacious and comfortable whether underway or as a luxury live-aboard. We do not get many vessels of this type on our books so don't let it slip its lines without you at the helm.

Where the particulars herein give details of a boat, whether new or used, they are intended to give a fair description of the vessel but are not guaranteed as accurate or complete. They shall not form part of any offer or contract for the sale of the vessel. The prospective purchaser is recommended to independently check the particulars and the vessel. The vendor is not selling in the course of a business unless otherwise stated.
